So don't worry if you're way early.<BR/><BR/>And I had a lot a BH contractions, pretty early too. And my babes are born right on time.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138574990542148943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093857701201053643.post-14689673307755849432007-09-25T22:21:00.000-04:002007-09-25T22:21:00.000-04:00Both of my babies moved a lot.

My whole belly would roll around like a jello mold. <BR/><BR/>I remember first feeling George fluttering around at 4 months, and I believe it was around the same time for Andrew. <BR/><BR/>I could see movement from the outside at 5 months. Leaking started around the same time, I think. <BR/><BR/>My belly button never pushed out, probably because there was plenty of padding surrounding it.<BR/><BR/>I never had any Braxton Hicks contractions; when the boys decided to come, they came right away. George's labor was about 12 hours from start to finish; Andrew's (once it started) was about 4 hours.<BR/><BR/>I remember having difficulty sleeping around 7 months. I would wake up several times and had a hard time falling back asleep. A body pillow helped alot (and also sleeping on the couch, unfortunately).<BR/><BR/>I went two weeks early with George and three weeks early with Andrew. (Both due dates were using LMP, not NFP; I wasn't keeping track)<BR/><BR/>Also, an interesting tidbit: both of my babies were born right before the full moon. With George, I started having contractions and labor progressed from there, but with Andrew, my water broke in the middle of the night with no contractions. I eventually went on pitocin to start the labor. Some people say there's nothing to it, but I know the moon was to blame.<BR/> <BR/>I think that's it. Funny, I remember my first pregnancy so much better than my second!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01752189592297542479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093857701201053643.post-17865642471667425432007-09-25T11:49:00.000-04:002007-09-25T11:49:00.000-04:00When did you feel baby move for the first time fro...When did you feel baby move for the first time from the inside?: It was around Januaryish so about 4 months.<BR/><BR/>When did you feel baby move with your hand on your belly?: Not a clue.<BR/><BR/>When were you able to see baby moving?: Around 4 months, too.<BR/><BR/>When did you start leaking?: I think I was leaking the whole time.<BR/><BR/>Did you ever have any pregnancy symptoms that magically went away, such as backache, or squished lungs? And if you did, did it mean anything that they disappeared?: Squished ribs that pain stop around 6 or 7 months but it didn't mean anything.<BR/><BR/>When did your belly button pop out, if it did?: 7ish months??<BR/><BR/>When did you start having Braxton-Hicks contractions, and did you get them a lot?: Never really had those at all.<BR/><BR/>At what point were you unable to sleep?: I slept pretty darn well through the whole pregnancy (ask me how I sleep now). :o)<BR/><BR/>How much did your baby move throughout your pregnancy?: Quite a bit, probably not as much as yours.<BR/><BR/>Was your baby a boy or a girl?: Charles!!!<BR/><BR/>How early/late/on time was your baby?: According to the dr's date he was 6 days late. According to our NFP date he was right on time. I was laboring on the 7th and that was on NFP date.<BR/><BR/>Wow, now I feel like a bad prego person, between working and keeping a house I hardly remember for sure any of those things!! That and I've lost most of my brain power since he was born.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10242155105268596495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093857701201053643.post-18268405736336702007-09-25T00:26:00.000-04:002007-09-25T00:26:00.000-04:00Darn.. now I want to go get myself all knocked up ...Darn.. now I want to go get myself all knocked up so I can answer the poll questions.. be right back.. <BR/><BR/><BR/>(i'm just kidding)Caitie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189038298090080866noreply@blogger.com
